Solomostry
Murals, Canvas, Illustration, Screen printing
Born and raised in Milan, Solomostry graduates in Graphic Design & Art Direction, but marks his career by approaching very early to graffiti. It is exactly in the hall of fame area between Lambrate and Via Padova, that the artist embarks upon the street culture confronting the most famous crews of this area- We can say that Solomostry is a multifaceted artist who ranges from screen printing to muralism, from painting to installation, and it is due to his eclecticism and thanks to bumping into the techno/clubbing realities present in the Lombard capital that around 2007 he moves away from graffiti and shapes his new subjects: the Monsters.
Solomostry’s research is characterised by a fragmented line which models geometric expressive figures, revealing aggressive emotions. These are monstrous masks performers of impressions, restlessness, excesses, present in everyday life. The marked outline builds and destroys at the same time. The strong lines break the surfaces and mark the space in which bright and flat colours play, now typical of Solomostry.
